A device for gassing a liquid, including a rotor, which is driven to rotate and has multiple vanes for conveying the liquid, and a stator, which surrounds the rotor and has a plurality of flow channels, which each extends starting from a radially inner inlet opening adjacent to the rotor through the stator to a radially outer outlet opening and are delimited along their length by side walls, bottom surfaces, and top surfaces and can be acted on with liquid by the rotor in the region of the inlet opening, wherein between the inlet opening and the outlet opening, the side walls and/or bottom and top surfaces of the flow channels have a multitude of gassing openings, which can be acted on with compressed gas from a compressed gas source in order to introduce this gas into the flow channels. A corresponding method for gassing a liquid is also disclosed.

A gas dispersion system may include a drive mechanism, a drive shaft having a proximal end operably coupled to the drive mechanism, extending to a distal end, and configured to transfer rotational motion and torque, a mixing element arranged at or near the distal end of the drive shaft including a hub and multiple blade pairs, each blade pair including an upper blade and a lower blade secured to the hub and cantilevering freely and generally radially away from the hub.

Devices suitable for use in an advanced oxidation method for organic and inorganic pollutants deploying OH* radicals and ozone is disclosed. Optionally, a first discharge device, providing OH* radicals and second discharge device providing ozone, are combined to provide desirable chemical and biocidal characteristics. Further, efficient mixing systems for transferring the radicals to the target fluid are disclosed.

An apparatus for mass transfer between a liquid and a gas inside a rotor having a packing. The liquid is introduced at a center of the rotor and driven outward through the packing by centrifugal force generated by rotation of the rotor, and the gas surrounding the rotor is forced inward through the rotor by a pressure of the gas, counter to the liquid flow in the rotor. The packing inside the rotor is divided into individual packing segments that together form a circular disk. Each circular ring segment is formed by at least one structured packing formed of a plurality of superimposed woven, knitted, mesh or lattice structured surfaces composed of metal, in particular sheet-metal strips, or plastic or glass fibers, to which the axis of rotation of the rotor runs perpendicular.

A micro-bubble generator has an intake manifold, a casing threadingly connected to the intake manifold, a first air inlet channel defined between threads of the intake manifold and the casing, a booster located inside the casing and having a gap defined between the casing and the booster to form a second air inlet channel and to communicate with the first air inlet channel, a bubble generating tube located inside the casing and having a third air inlet channel defined between the end faces of the bubble generating tube and of the booster. The booster includes a first water inlet and a first water outlet having an inner diameter smaller than that of the first water inlet so that water velocity at the first water outlet is faster than that at the first water inlet, which forces ambient air to enter the bubble generating tube via air inlet channels and to be mixed with water in the bubble generating tube to generate bubbles. Bubbles are cut into micro-bubbles after passing through the cutter and exit the bubble exit.

A disposable container, such as a deformable bag, for a fluid, having one or more inlets and one or more outlets and an impeller assembly within the container to cause mixing, dispersing, homogenizing and/or circulation of one or more ingredients contained or added to the container. The impeller assembly has a protective hood surrounding at least a portion of the moveable blades or vanes of the impeller assembly and being above at least a portion of the blades or vanes. The hood surrounds the blades or vanes and arcs over the height of the blades or vanes. The hood is shaped in a dome shape or semi-spherical shape that is around and above the impeller blades and acts as a protector for the container surface against the impeller assembly both during shipping and storage as well as when in use, particularly at lower liquid levels.
